Today, from her quiet home in Lombard, just fifty miles outside of Chicago, an eighty-seven-year-old Jane Prescott decides to break her six-decade silence. Enticed by a bold New York publisher, the former personal secretary to Jacqueline Kennedy opens her vintage leather journals to reveal the fictionalized memoirs of a world that vanished into history.As Jackie's ultimate confidante, Jane had a front-row seat to the architecture of Camelot. Through her eyes, we experience the suffocating pressure of high-society Washington, the tense negotiations with powerful foreign ambassadors, and the private lives of the twentieth century's most iconic figures.PLEASE NOTE: This novel is a work of fiction. While inspired by real historical milestones-such as the Mona Lisa's historic visit to Washington in 1962, the tragic assassination of JFK, and the death of Martin Luther King Jr.-all dialogues, private interactions, and intimate scenes are entirely invented by the author's imagination.This book is born out of deep admiration. It stands as the author's heartfelt personal tribute and homage to these extraordinary, powerful, and complex women who forever marked and defined the history of the twentieth century.Walk through the private corridors alongside legendary icons like Audrey Hepburn, Vivien Leigh, Jane Fonda, Barbra Streisand, Joan Collins, Cheryl Ladd, and Jaclyn Smith. Witness the international, melancholic glamor of Dalida, the quiet elegance of Princess Grace of Monaco wrestling with European politics, the tragic, operatic thunder of Maria Callas facing her future rival, and the lingering shadow of Marilyn Monroe.Before the curtain falls forever, Jane Prescott is finally ready to share this glamorous, dramatic, and deeply respectful journey into a glittering past.
